Description

Want to wake up more relaxed, in a better mood? I suggest you try this Alarm Clock.

"Personal Sunrise" is a dawn simulator for Android devices. It helps to wake up more easily in the morning, as your body prepares for wakeup due to the increasing light of the display. No more waking up from deep sleep phases.

You can try the app for longer than 2 hours - I will re-fund you without hesitation if you it does not fulfill your needs. You need to have several days to find out. If it does not satisfy you, please drop me a note with your order ID and - may I kindly ask - the reason so that I have a chance to improve the app.

Enhanced features include support of:
the Hue Personal Lighting System from Philips
the FHEM home automation (allows commanding the coffee machine, roller blinds, ...)

Wikipedia says "Dawn simulation is a technique originally developed to help treat seasonal affective disorder, but can be used as a soundless alarm clock to wake up the body naturally. Typically, the treatment involves timing lights in the bedroom to come on gradually, over a period of 30 minutes to 2 hours, before awakening.". WakeLight offers you several configuration options for the light simulation (sequence length, brightness curve, min/max brightness) and the sound (alarm sound, snooze timing and sound) in combination with the comfort of periodic alarm templates (with single-alarm removal), and of course single-alarm times. See the pictures. This app is very handy when you're travelling: take your dawn simulation with you!

It was intended to be used with tablets of at least 7 inches, but I have enough positive feedback of users with even smaller devices to be able to state it can be good to try with such a small device (especially, of course, if you want to use Hue lights). It depends on your light sensitivity, of course, and the brightness of your environment - but you will be astonished as it works subconscious. Just try, I think you will not regret it.

Anyway, using HUE or FHEM the size of the device does not matter any more at all!These systems will handle the simulation.

Features:
✓ alarm templates for repetition as well as one-time alarms
✓ alarm tone can be internal tones, ringtones, playlists, external music and music stream from the internet
✓ disable or change alarm time even of a one-time alarm of a template
✓ brightness, duration and sounds configurable, some sounds contained in the package
✓ optional display of weather forecast and sunrise/set times (using the free plugin downloadable from the shop)
✓ clean and easy-to-use user interface
✓ optionally display a clock with automatic brightness control (in case a brightness sensor is available) that gets brighter when touched
✓ optional text-to-speech reading of the actual time during the alarm
✓ external apps can set alarms using the standard intent, for example Google Now "wake me up at 6:30"
✓ 'dusk simulation': a red display will to improve falling asleep as well as your sleep.
…and much more…

5 ★ Great app to integrate bedside clock (which allows very low brightness levels), sound alarm and simulated sunrise. Integrates well with Hue and is highly customisable to create a gradual calm waking experience. Very responsive developer who released an update to address a minor issue I had within a couple of days.

2 ★ Might be an issue specific to my hue setup but the lights flash on bright white before dimming which wakes you up immediately rather than gently. Everything else seems to be ok but the Hue Sunrise was my reason downloading. Christian is there any chnace i can take you up on the refund?

5 ★ Does the job! Made my waking up more pleasant and smooth, I don't snooze anymore.

5 ★ Awesome!

4 ★ Great

5 ★ Best app I have ever purchased. Use it daily.8/7/19 update: Continues to be there best app I have purchased. Worth many times the price. Brilliant!

5 ★ Awesome sunrise.

5 ★ A very useful app that allows me to wake up the best way possible 🌞 A lot of settings but once configured to your wishes it works well. I particularly like the calendar feature so I can adjust my wakeup time based on my schedule for the day 🌅

5 ★ Relaxing awakening

1 ★ Garbage. Stops working randomly, no reason why it stops working. Completely unacceptable to ask people for money for a program that just randomly decides to stop working

3 ★ Really nice, but the interface is not quite modern or visually pleasing.. That would be a huuuge plus!

5 ★ Works great once you get the hang of it.

5 ★ Great wake up app. Does what it sets out to do, namely wake you with ease to greet the day. Any issues are quickly fixed. Christian is very responsive. Great job!

5 ★ A great alarm clock that isn't 'alarming.' It wakes you up more gently over a period of time to the soothing colors of a sunrise. It is much nicer than being shocked awake. I never thought there was a better way to wake up but this app made me realize there is.

1 ★ Alarm doesn't go off anymore in recent update.
